1
AGAVE NECTAR Agave nectar (also called agave syrup) created quite a buzz among health food aficionados when it was introduced to the market way back in 1999. Since it is processed at between 140 to 160 degrees, it doesn’t meet raw food requirements – even though some manufacturers market it as a raw, nutritious food!
2
GRANOLA BARS Most granola bars are packed with so much sugar that Sari Greaves, RD, the nutrition director for StepAhead Wellness Center in New Jersey, says “a lot of them are nothing more than glorified candy bars. They can be packed with enriched white flour, high fructose corn syrup, and other sweeteners.”
3
“ORGANIC” PROCESSED FOODS Organic processed foods are quick, convenient, and more expensive than their conventional counterparts—and quite nearly as bad! If you look for convenience and great nutrition, you’re much better off with raw smoothies, which contain all the good and none of the bad.
4
PASTA According to Dr. Richard Heller and Dr. Rachael Heller, coauthors of The Carbohydrate Addicts Diet, eating too much pasta can bring on strong cravings for even more carbohydrate-rich foods, leading to weight gain.
5
WHOLE WHEAT BREAD whole wheat bread is usually empty of any nutrients your body needs to keep you healthy. It is full of sugar that spikes your insulin, causes you to gain weight, and creates intense cravings for more of the same stuff.
6
YOGURT (LOW-FAT AND/OR WITH FAKE FRUIT) Yogurt’s great for you, right? Not so fast. Most of the yogurt on supermarket shelves is packed with additives, including sugar that messes up your metabolism and contributes to belly fat.
7
STORE-BOUGHT SMOOTHIES Store-bought smoothies are definitely on the list of “bad” foods. Of course, some are better “fast food” than a burger and fries combo washed down with a big chocolate milk shake.
